Sea Sheperd's Awsome New Ship

Sea Shepherd Receives 8.3 Million Euros from the Dutch Postcode Lottery for the Protection of the Southern Ocean

January 26th, Sea Shepherd received the biggest donation (8.3 million Euros) in its history. Sea Shepherds submitted Dream Project Stop Illegal Fishing in the Southern Ocean was awarded with the required funds to make this dream a reality. Sea Shepherd will use the donation to build a new ship, which will enable the organization to be more effective than ever in the fight against poaching on the high seas.

We are now able to proceed with the purchase of our dream ship and lift our conservation efforts to protect the Southern Ocean from illegal exploitation to the next level. We are extremely grateful to the Dutch Postcode Lottery and the people of the Netherlands for this very generous support, said Cornelissen.
